text: remote or Amsterdam<p>Hey HN! I&#x27;ve been working on a startup on my own for a few months now, and am now working on it full time. It&#x27;s a niche B2B with a promising trial slotted for November. As time is running down, I&#x27;m looking for extra hands to help in the following areas:<p>* Front-end: React SPA performance improvements, setting up automated testing&#x2F;QA<p>* Back-end: Need to code up an operational transform server -- Node, Python, or CL. I&#x27;ve hashed out roughly the OT functionality on the front end but need to set up the backing server<p>* Ops: I&#x27;m a bit overwhelmed with hosting options. Happy to pay either for advice or for you to actually set it up. There are two different services with very different performance requirements. Security is a concern in both<p>I&#x27;m pretty flexible in terms of working style. I&#x27;m currently in Amsterdam, but incorporated in the US. This is building to an MVP, so if all goes well there would be more work afterwards!<p>Edit: Contact info local part is &quot;felipe&quot; domain is &quot;fov.space&quot;
